-2- The 2-The Planning Board's recommendation on the approval of a variance on a prop- osed sign for the Goodyear Service Center was discussed. It was the opinion of the majority of the Council that they would be in favor of the pylon -sign as proposed. Mr. John Bogucki, representing Rodney Billman Inc., explained to the Council the reason for submitting a plat for the property under condemnation proc- eedings by St. Anthony School District #282. He stated that Mr. Billman had taken action to have the proceedings vacated and that the condemnation proc- eedings as set forth by the school district were in error. The Council inform- ed Mr. Bogucki that they would consider the plat if the property is nct taken by the District 232 School Board, but that at this time the matter would be tabled until the condemnation proceedings were either carried out or vacated.
